Homecoming day

October 2nd, 2008 · 5 Comments · Family, Food, Hawaii, Photography

On day three of my journey to document a week in our lives… we had a homecoming, lunch with a king, a movie treat, a cupcake shop and a bedtime story.

Here is Jordan with his welcome home sign and flag :)

Jalen with his sign: We’re sto glad you’re home!


here comes the ship

a picture troy took of me from the ship… :)

In case you don’t recognize him, He’s the cute one in the middle! :)

Gas came down 5 cents since Monday!

we went to the dollar theater for the first time last night and saw Kung Fu Panda… I got some other shots inside the theater, scroll down to the gallery and click to see them larger. Possibly the most memorable part of the night, some man came in a sat directly in front of me… and jordan wanted to sit in my lap… then leaned up on the seat and says, “Who’s that man? What’s your name?”  I had to tell him, we don’t bother people in the movies…

after the movie we stopped in at the cupcake shop… there are more pics in the gallery on the bottom.  the boys each got a fire truck cookie. i got a bite of jordan’s and it was GOOOD!

I was blown away by the beauty of the moon when we came out of the theater. awesome.  I wish I would have had my other lens… but I pretty much walk around with my 50mm all the time.  more shots in the gallery.

and in case my geekiness/nerdiness ever comes into question… when I saw this license plate in the parking structure, I immediately thought feed.

    Oh my….your pictures bring tears to my eyes…I was so choked up looking at the boys welcoming their dad home that the RSS feed line was a welcome LOL moment.

    thanks for sharing, Joscie. I just love your blog.

    Homecomings always make me cry! I never got to experience it when my husband was in the Navy, but I have always imagined what it was like, and I just love seeing all the sailors lined up all around the ship and the hugs and kisses all around with the families. Welcome Home Troy :)
